Hugo Boss, a name associated with sharp tailoring has undergone major changes since the introduction of American designer Jason Wu, who has rebooted the Hugo Boss image particularly when it comes to bags and for Spring/Summer 16, we’re loving the updated Bespoke Bag.

Inspired by Bauhaus artists like Josef Albers and Wassily Kandinsky, the Bespoke bag features a vibrant colour palette and sharp geometrical shapes. The structured bag is both smart and feminine that brings a touch of chic to the label. Available in 2 sizes, we prefer the bigger of the 2 bags that comes with 1 main compartment big enough to fit your laptop and 2 internal slots to fit any paperwork or daily workday essentials, the Bespoke bag is quintessentially a smart office bag and a sophisticated replacement for those used to carrying a briefcases or tote bag.

You’ve seen her larger siblings, now meet the baby of the family and the smallest of them all, the Mini Bespoke Bag. New for Spring-Summer 2016 and adorably sized at 15 cm by 14 cm by 5 cm, this little wonder is also riding a trend that doesn’t seem to be going away any time soon. One that’s all about how small is beautiful, especially when it also comes with an additional sling that can be used with the bag as a crossbody or a shoulder, or without the sling and as the cutest clutch possible yet.

Priced at just SGD1549, it’s also a great price, especially when you consider that it’s made of full leather as well, and with colours available in Singapore being Black andPastel Pink, you just need to decide which one would be a better choice as far as your own wardrobe is concerned.

You’ve already read about the Hugo Boss Small Bespoke Bag, a new F/W15 offering that while I wouldn’t exactly call cute, is adorable in its own way. Today we’ve turning the spotlight over to her bigger sister, the Medium Bespoke Bag. Measuring some 32 cm by 24 cm, this smooth calf leather bag that’s crafted in Italy is a worthy contender for OLs (or office lady) looking for a suitable workhorse of a bag.

Featuring streamlined stitched edges that give it that sharp, no-nonsense finish (which in a way, is reminiscent of how polished Hugo Boss suits are), it comes with a short top handle as well as a long detachable shoulder sling which will always come in useful especially when the bag is full and you need to be handsfree in order to shop those after work sales.

Available in a wide variety of colours (Black, Blue and Red, for starters), there’s also a variation in wool felt suede that’s a personal favourite of mine. Priced from SGD2200for the ones in Medium (they will come with an additional luggage tag hot-stamped with your initials if you so wish), you can now check them out at Hugo Boss boutiques islandwide.

You’ll also be able to personally bespoke your Bespoke Bag, which is an additional service offered this season. Let me explain. Available in patent colourways (Black, Ink Blue, Tan, Taupe and Wild Rose), you get to pick the colour and the colour of the hardware it will come in, be it Ice Gold or Shiny Palladium. And then there’s the addition of metal block letters featuring your initials, which you can place on the front of the bag if you so wish. Taking up to 8 weeks for your bag to be personally crafted, this would also make a good festive gift idea for those of you whose womenfolk wouldn’t mind starting the year with a personalised bag to call her own.

Smart, structured and sophisticated, these 3 words come immediately to mind when faced with the Bespoke Bag, a new F/W15 offering from Hugo Boss, a brand that’s actually more synonymous with sharp mens suiting. With the introduction of American designer Jason Wu, however, the German label has undergone a change of sorts and upping the ante especially when it comes to womenswear, bags and accessories.

Which brings us back to the Bespoke Bag. Available in 2 sizes, today we’ll focus on the smaller of the two that measures 21 cm by 19 cm. While not exactly sized to be your everyday workhorse (for that you’ll have to go for her bigger sibling), it’s still big enough for your workday essentials, provided everything else that’s chunky or heavy goes into a briefcase or tote, of course.

Available in smooth leather, calf hair leather and my personal favourite, wool felt which you can see in all its glory here, they are now available at Hugo Boss boutiques in Singapore with prices starting from SGD1800.

Before I go, here’s a quick look at the larger Bespoke Bag, which I’m all gaga over because it’s in wool felt. Great for work and all your everyday essentials (32 cm by 24 cm), I’ll be back another day with more on this so stay tuned. #BossBespokeBag
